Prospect House Care Home - Malpas

Prospect House Care Home - Malpas Our aim is to achieve excellence in our nursing and extend that excellence to all we do. And we know that it’s frequently a stressful process.

For nearly 30 years, we have provided a home for up to 56 people, but we have recently increased this to 60. Our aim is to achieve excellence in our nursing care and to extend that excellence to all we do. From the style and maintenance of the building and the standard of our housekeeping, to our activities and occupational therapy sessions; from the respectful manner shown by our staff, to the ability of every resident to choose what to do every day. Importantly, we aim for excellence in the openness of communication between everyone involved in the care of people at Prospect House – residents, relatives, friends, doctors, nurses, social workers, carers and external agencies such as the Care Quality Commission, who regulate our work. But the more difficult task – that of finding the best care home – is usually in the hands of the relatives of the potential resident. Reading lots of information on a web site is unlikely to relieve the stress, or to guarantee that the right home gets chosen. For more detailed information, please ask for our Guide which can be posted or emailed to you. Best of all though, we’d like to invite you to visit us. You will be very welcome.

🏡🌿🌼 Our amazing volunteer gardeners have a request for the green fingered amongst our followers please❗

Does anyone have any spare hosta plants❓

Now is the time gardeners will divide hostas, at Prospect House we have quite a few shady areas that would greatly benefit from some fabulous hostas in pots to enrich the outside areas for our residents.

If anyone can spare any cuttings, we would be extremely grateful ☺️

Thank you in advance, we are always around to accept hostas, call in and see us any time 🫶✨

✨☺️ Yesterday, residents enjoyed a trip to Chester Town Hall, at the special invitation of The Lord Mayor of Chester!

During her last visit to Prospect House, The Lord Mayor, Councillor Sherin Akhtar, invited residents to join her at her offices at Chester Town Hall for a special tour of the Hall, and a talk about the Mayoral Regalia!

During her term, The Lord Mayor has taken time on several occasions to visit Prospect House, always meaningfully engaging with our residents, as well as acknowledging resident's personal histories, and individuality. Residents were absolutely delighted, therefore, to accept the invitation.

The Lord Mayor said; 'Hosting Prospect House residents for this special tour of the Town Hall felt like a natural extension of the wonderful relationship which has developed between myself and the residents. This visit celebrated heritage, history and the here and now, but also captured the true spirit of community and inclusion of all civic life'.

Thank you to our brilliant student nurse Paige for accompanying us, and huge thanks to The Lord Mayor of Chester, and her lovely team, for this very special experience ☺️✨

We celebrated a very special resident's birthday today 🥰✨💛

Not everyone has been blessed to be a mum, but when we are gentle, and kind, and selflessly compassionate, as our birthday girl eternally is, we will always be surrounded by love 💛✨🥰

☺️✨ What a busy week we had!

⛪ We enjoyed cakes and hot drinks on a rainy day against the backdrop of the amazing Café 1092, set in the thirteenth century monks’ dining hall at Chester Cathedral and including a seventeenth-century tapestry, and the beautiful Creation Window depicting the six days of creation!

😅 We did our exercises to promote circulation and motivation!

🎨 Nicola from ‘Creative Minds’ art visited us; Nicola agreed we have some incredibly talented and creative artists amongst us, and Nicola provided our less confident artists with some good creative tips.

🌸🌼🌿🥰 And Prospect House morphed into a floral wonderland for Mothering Sunday; thank you so much to all the amazing relatives who visited their loved ones today, and to those who sent heartfelt notes, cards, letters, flowers and chocolates from afar, we are grateful for you all; our residents enjoyed a day filled with good cheer, positivity, and great happiness! 🥰

🌼🌿☺️ We are buying shares in Bellis Brothers! 😆

We took another trip to our favourite garden centre; it was a little too breezy to look at the old Willow today, nonetheless, residents enjoyed a fun packed perusal of all the indoor plants and gifts, before enjoying hot chocolate and cake, none of which was left unconsumed! 😋

Huge thanks again to our wonderful student nurse Paige for all the help, and excellent encouragement of, and engagement with our residents ☺️ 🌿🌼

❤️🐾 Residents’ hearts and hands were warmed this morning, when Isla visited us again!

Today we learned that Isla loves a cup of tea, no sugar! Of course, Isla is sweet enough 🥰

Isla's incredibly gentle and giving temperament never fails to elevate our Monday mornings, thank you so much Lisa and Isla 🐾

🌼☺️🌸 And this afternoon, we enjoyed a wonderfully inclusive and relaxing flower club on our Butterfly Suite.

Everyone got involved, the pretty blooms brightened all of our day 🌸☺️🌼

☺️🌿🌼 We enjoyed another fun packed trip Bellis Brothers!

We laughed and chatted our way around, looking at just about everything!

A member of the public kindly spoke to us to acknowledge the approach we took during our trip; in the moment explanations, constant reassurance, and patiently and compassionately allowing our residents the time they require to process each step of the trip out, are key to our residents thoroughly enjoying excursions, and continuing to comfortably participate in the vibrancy of society! 🩷💚💛🩵💜

Huge thanks go to our student nurse, Zara! Zara took absolutely everything in her stride, Zara’s confidence, and the way in which she immediately, easily connected with our residents, helped to make our trip out a wonderful success! 🌼🌿☺️

🌿🌼🌸 Yesterday afternoon we all enjoyed 'Spring Flowers' art club!

Residents supported one another to be creative in their own way, and within this inclusive, relaxed environment residents came up with some incredible interpretations of Spring Flowers!

Huge thanks go to our wonderful student nurse Paige; Paige cleverly and constructively encouraged our residents, helping them to reach their full potential! 🌸🌼🌿

☺️✨February has been Dignity in Care month.

Dignity in Care means valuing every person as an individual, respecting other’s views, choices and decisions, not making assumptions about how people want to be treated, and always working with care and compassion.

Today we celebrated companionship and inclusivity with our fun and challenging, but fully accessible BIG QUIZ afternoon!

We were incredibly privileged to have The Lord Mayor of Chester join us!

We tested the old brain cells, trying to answer questions correctly in our General Knowledge, Music, Sport and St. David’s Day rounds.

The Mayor joined residents for the duration of the quiz, but not before taking the time to speak with each of our residents individually, engaging in conversation which was meaningful, considered, and compassionate.

Huge thanks go to the Lord Mayor, our senior nurse Claire for helping us with our St. David’s Day round (especially the pronunciations 😅), and of course, to our amazing residents who all made the afternoon so much fun, packed with good humour and so many laughs!
